Seo In-guk, Francine Diaz sing sweet melodies with ‘My Love’
IN a serendipitous encounter during Seo In-guk’s fan meet in Manila last year, a unique collaboration was born. The K-drama sensation and multi-talented artist expressed his desire to work with emerging Filipino talent Francine Diaz.
The catalyst for this collaboration was a casual dinner meeting between Seo and Diaz’s manager, John Ling.
During the dinner, the multitalented South Korean actor was captivated by Francine’s rendition of “Pag-Ibig,” which resonated deeply with him. Despite any initial doubts Diaz may have had about her singing prowess in comparison to Seo’s ‘magical’ voice, the seasoned singer sensed a dynamic synergy between them.
It’s a grand collaboration that nobody saw coming. Seo In-guk shared his enthusiasm for it, saying, “The song’s content is about love, so I worked on it, thinking, ‘Wouldn’t it be fun to make it like a conversation that talks about love and goes back and forth about love?’ and that process was just so much fun.”
The result of this unexpected collaboration is the upcoming single “My Love,” which was recently released under Universal Records. The track promises a magical blend of Seo seasoned artistry and Diaz’s emerging talent, creating a melody that speaks directly to the heart.
Fans can enjoy a refreshing take on love as the song unfolds in a unique conversation-style format, offering a delightful twist to the traditional love song. It can even pass as a heartwarming and healing series OST.
In addition to his collaboration with Diaz, Seo has recently achieved another milestone with his latest accolade in the K-drama series “Death’s Game,” where he takes the lead alongside a stellar cast. Seo also showcases his versatility as the lead actor, Edmond Dantes, in the Broadway musical “Monte Cristo,” a production that can now be streamed on various digital platforms.
“My Love” is not just a musical collaboration but a testament to the unexpected beauty that can arise when artists from different corners of the world come together.
